Does anyone know how to get postfix to scan incoming mail for viruses?

I have compiled and installed clamAV and it all appears to work, but I don't know how to make it scan incomaing mail, I think I need to add a line to the Postfix configuration file??

Any help gladly received.

TIA.

Didja check out the Postfix documentation?

http://www.postfix.org/docs.html
Namely the section: "UCE/Virus"

Yeah I read that, but I can't get it to work.

I have got procmail receiving the mail but I cannot get it to pass it back to cyrus to deliver it.

From what I know, the problem seems to lie with the fact that the users do not have home's to deliver the mail to, it needs to deliver the mail to their POP3 mailbox.

Users have been created using Workgroup manager to enable them to receive mail only, they do not have homes as they will never log on to the machine.
